This fall Friday

I do so dearly love Oprah (I just can't understand how someone wouldn't) and I've been watching every day now that she's in her Farewell Season. I really enjoyed today's episode chronicling Oprah and Gayle's camping adventure in Yosemite National Park. Ryan and Macauley like camping so much, and I'd like to humor them more, but I think I'm more similar to Gayle and Oprah in my attitudes toward camping. There are several videos at http://www.oprah.com/oprahshow/Oprah-and-Gayles-Camping-Adventure-In-Yosemite. Their best friend banter over singing in the car and Oprah sideswiping a rock with the camper as she pulled into the campsite made me laugh. I think there's another episode this coming Wednesday...

Something else fun was heading to the dollar movies tonight (now actually $3, but still a bargain) to see Despicable Me. Such a cute movie about an evil supervillian who has a change of heart when he adopts three orphaned girls. We all loved the bit with the fluffy unicorn and we've been laughing all evening about a number of the lines.

Now it's cold out--my flowers out front got blasted by a frost last night--and it's so nice to be snuggled in at our house. We've got some fun, easy plans for this Halloween weekend...it's already off to a good start.

Oprah came to God's country.... with a tent camper. I watched it too. What fun! I'm not so sure that Gayle will ever do it again but I got a kick out of her comments. I can't wait to see more of their adventures.Yosmite is so beautiful it takes your breath away.... I forget how beautiful it is and I live really close to it.
